Quantum Machines

Quantum Machines is a Tel Aviv, Israel-based quantum control company that builds the Quantum Orchestration Platform (QOP) — a unified hardware and software stack for controlling quantum processors at the pulse level. Its hardware portfolio centers on the OPX+ and OPX1000 controllers, which are built around a custom Pulse Processing Unit (PPU) architecture that executes classical control and real-time feedback alongside arbitrary waveform generation, with sub-microsecond classical-quantum round trips and 160 ns active reset latency. The platform is programmed in QUA, the company's domain-specific pulse-level language, exposed to developers through the qm-qua Python SDK and an extensive open-source ecosystem under the qua-platform GitHub organization (QUAlibrate, QUAM, qua-libs, py-qua-tools, qua-dashboards). Quantum Machines also ships peripheral hardware including the Octave up/down converter (to 18 GHz), QDAC-II ultra-low-noise DACs, QSwitch, QBox, and the QCage/QBoard/QFilter cryogenic line. The platform is qubit-modality agnostic, supporting superconducting, semiconductor spin, trapped-ion, neutral-atom, and color-center systems, and is used by university labs (MIT, Caltech, Harvard, Princeton, Weizmann) and quantum startups (Alice & Bob, Diraq, EeroQ). Quantum Machines has partnered with NVIDIA on the DGX Quantum hybrid quantum-classical compute platform and acquired the Delft-based QHarbor Bioscience team as a European R&D hub. Quantum Machines does not currently publish a public REST API, OpenAPI specification, or self-service developer signup; the QOP control surface is reached exclusively via the qm-qua Python SDK against an OPX/OPX1000 controller (hardware or qm-saas cloud simulator).

human only

Index entry only — little beyond a description and a link, and nothing machine-readable enough for an agent to act on without a human reading the site first.

Kin Score

API Evangelist profiles Quantum Machines the way a machine reads it — 14 machine-readable artifacts across 13 APIs, pulled from the provider's own public surface and indexed so a developer, an analyst, or an AI agent can evaluate it against every other provider on the network.

Every provider in the network is reduced to the same set of machine-readable artifacts — OpenAPI contracts, event specifications, GraphQL schemas, runnable collections, pricing and rate-limit signals, security posture, OAuth scopes, and the agent surfaces (MCP servers and skills) that let software drive the API on its own. We profile them because the interface is the part of a company you can actually inspect: it is a truer signal of what a provider does than any marketing page. From those artifacts we compute the Kin Score — Quantum Machines scores 12.5/100 (minimal), with a separate agent-readiness read of 0/100 (human only). The full breakdown is below, followed by every artifact we hold — each card links through to its machine-readable definition on apis.io.

Kin Score

This is the API Evangelist rating — a single, repeatable read computed from the artifacts on this page. Green fill is points earned; the red track is points possible, so every bar shows earned-versus-possible at a glance.

How we profile Quantum Machines

Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for Quantum Machines. For each we say what it is and why it earns a place in the profile, then list every one we've indexed — capped at two rows, scroll within the panel for the rest.

APIs 13

Each API is captured as its own OpenAPI definition — every operation, parameter, and response. This is the single most useful machine-readable description of what an API does, and it's what lets us score, lint, mock, and generate against it without asking the provider for anything.

Individual APIs this provider publishes, each with its own machine-readable definition.

Security Posture 1

Authentication, domain security, vulnerability disclosure, and trust-center signals — the evidence that a provider takes security seriously enough to document it. We profile it because you can't govern what you can't see.
